SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Police say a man behind the wheel of a Tesla that hit another car and left three people critically injured in Utah is suspected of driving intoxicated. Police Sgt. Keith Horrocks said Monday the car’s battery burst into flames after it ran a red light and crashed in Salt Lake City Sunday morning. It was put out by a hazardous-materials crew. Two men in the Tesla and a woman in the other car, a Nissan Sentra, were taken to hospitals in critical condition. Horrocks says authorities are investigating criminal charges against the Tesla’s driver, who remains hospitalized.
